Overview
Welcome to Forest Care Village Care Centre in Borehamwood, Hertfordshire. The modern facility offers 24-hour nursing care for adults with life-long physical conditions, particularly those with Acquired Brain Injuries and neurological conditions and 24-hour nursing care for those aged 65 and over.
The home is blessed with a dedicated team of nursing and support staff that provide high-quality, person-centred care within a homely environment. They work in partnership with visiting therapists to offer short and long-term placements, palliative, respite and post-operative care.
The purpose-built facility comprises 178 bedrooms, all with en-suite facilities; a large physiotherapy suite; music and sensory facilities and courtyard sensory gardens. They encourage residents to furnish their new surroundings with familiar pieces of furniture and personal possessions to make them feel truly at home.
While the home's bedrooms provide a tranquil area to rest and relax, the modern communal lounges allow residents to catch up with friends over a pot of tea, enjoy one of the guest entertainers or recline in front of their favourite film.
At Forest Care Village, they encourage residents to take part in a range of engaging activities based on their lifestyle needs and preferences. Many of their activities take place within the home environment and include art workshops, handicrafts, garden parties, and barbecues. They empower individuals to enjoy those everyday routines they cherish, whether having a salon blow-dry and manicure or keeping up to date with their favourite football team. All are encouraged and available. Forest Care Village's residents enjoy the wider community with a thriving high street, independent shops and a local park all within a short distance.
